Sotogrande is recognized for many things, including having the most reputable golf courses in Spain, but did you know you can buy homes located on golf courses?

That’s right, it’s an option to consider due to the multiple advantages they offer, both for living in them and as an investment. At Gilmar, we tell you everything.

Sotogrande Golf Courses

The quality of Sotogrande’s golf courses is unquestionable, considering that national and international tournaments are held there throughout the year, and thousands of golf enthusiasts rank them among the best in the world.

For those who love golf, Sotogrande offers various courses to choose from, such as the iconic Real Club de Sotogrande, famous for being the first course designed in Europe by Robert Trent Jones in 1964, 150 meters from the sea, and surrounded by native vegetation that makes it special.

The La Cañada Golf Course has 18 holes over a 5,841-meter course, designed by David Thomas and Robert Trent Jones Senior. At this golf club, you can learn to play and also participate in tournaments.

Real Club Valderrama, perhaps the most famous course in the area, is one of the 100 best-preserved courses in the world, where players such as Sergio García and John Catlin meet, and where great stars like Severiano Ballesteros and Tiger Woods have played. A course that requires great precision and strategy, hence its renowned difficulty.

The San Roque Club, designed by Perry Dye with the collaboration of Severiano Ballesteros, this golf course is challenging and was the venue for the 1997 Ryder Cup and two editions of the Spanish Open. It also has a hotel, an international cuisine restaurant, its own golf academy, and the possibility to organize events.

All of this in an incomparable natural setting, with native trees and sea views.

Why buy a home on a golf course?

Investing in a home located on a golf course offers multiple advantages, but it will gain more value depending on the quality of the course or club in question.

This is not a problem in the case of Sotogrande, as, as we have seen earlier, it has high-quality golf courses recognized worldwide.

When you add the benefits of living in a natural complex, surrounded by tranquility, with no neighbors, in the middle of nature, and in an exclusive location, the value of the property increases significantly.

Another reason to buy a property on a golf course is the return on investment. Generally, the type of property located on a golf course is a single-family home, large in size, which could be a mansion or a villa.

There aren’t many properties of this type in such exclusive locations, and when we add the tournament season to the equation, we can recover our investment either through a sale or short-term rental.
